Fanfare Please! Da, da, da, dah!!!
Or maybe a fanfare wouldn't be the appropriate song for my triumphant return to blogging. I'm not really very royal at all.... it's not like anybody ever mistakes me for a princess or something. Does El Salvador even have a princess? Mayan maybe. :p
I've always thought about which songs I'd make my entrance to if I ever became an awesome MMA fighter... lol. Which I TOTALLY could be (Gina Carano anyone?). I have narrowed down to some classics such as Eye of the Tiger (by Survivor), Black Betty (by Spiderbait), Victory (by Puff Daddy), Ether (by Nas), and some newer stuff like Lap Dance (by NERD), and maybe even Beautiful (by Akon)... because let's face it, life is still runway and like RuPaul says "You better work"!
(loving this song lately..btw)
Okay, okay so I'm off topic already... my point is that through some serious coaching from my friend (thanks Ike), I'm ready to give this online overgrown diary another chance. Ha ha ha... just kidding. I'm not a hater of blogging it's just that I have seen so many awesome blogs out there I get a little insecure about my own... but as long as I keep these writings true to me, I'm sure we'll get along just famously!
Isaac says I need to stop procrastinating and jump back on my blogging and goal horse. So I'm hoping that finishing different projects I've started will be good therapy and steps tward a fabulous new me!
It's been about a year since my last blog and I feel I should get some confessions out of the way (Hey, the church makes me do it!) Anyway, let's start with the obvious.... I'll be 28 in exactly 10 days!! OMG... when did I get this old? I mean, don't get me wrong I am aware I have tons and tons and tons to accomplish (and that life begins at 50)... but not feeling like that carefree little kid anymore is really starting to take its toll on me.
I really don't even remember what I did for most of my twenties... which is a sign of a good time, right? I guess my fear now is living the rest of my life wondering what happened the years that pass. With that said, my birthday resolution to myself this year (yes I make them) is to live my life on a moment to moment basis. Sure I will still be heading towards my goals an all, but I want to make sure that at the end of TODAY I feel it was an awesome one!
This includes a lot of the other stuff I have been going through lately... staying more true to myself and all. I have this tendency to have a black/white, right/wrong, no nonsense kind of attitude and for the most part would keep in under control in hopes that I don't make people angry or made them dislike me. I made decisions in my life seeking peoples approval and in the last couple of years realized I like the "real" me better.
The up front, silly, no nonsense type gal is much less insecure and much more in tune with what she and her hubby want! I am taking all the necessary steps to not be offensive to anyone I love of course... but I will have my moments! If people don't like it: you can take six... and take this, HATERS!
It happens to be time for celebrations.... in about a week I have plans to do my birthday up big in Old Pasadena. I'm excited because not only have I not partied in Los Angeles often... I have so many old friends scheduled to be there that it's like a mini "Evelyn this is your life" type celebration. My loved ones will be there as well as friends I have not seen in over 10 years!! (AHHHH FREAKOUT!) So far my guest list is at about 21.... I have no idea how in the world I am going to coordinate this... but I sure am going to try! I'll update again with pictures and let ya know how it went!
So here is a cheers to new beginnings, another year on the planet, and as usual LOVE!
